Daughter of Mr. Alexander Cuthbert LOW and Sarah Jane nee SMITH
Sister Annie Low, daughter of Mr and Mrs A. C. Low, of Mudgee, arrived home on Tuesday of last week after an absence of three years and three months, during which period she was on duty in military hospitals in India, France, Egypt, and England. Sister Low returned on the Kanowna, on board of which she did duty all through the voyage. Miss Lowe is delighted to be back in Australia and in Mudgee once more. The Low family played a prominent part in the war. Two daughters each saw very lengthy service abroad, while Private Tom Low answered the call, and after many hits with the enemy was severely wounded in France. The other member of the family, Mr. Will Low, made several attempts to follow his brother and sisters to the fighting theatre but was rejected.
